Larry Bughi - Video

Cardiac Surgery Patient

Larry Bughi of Anacortes has had his share of adventure. He’s been a race car driver and a mountaineer, but his greatest passion is teaching others to sail. His adventures could have ended when an aortic aneurysm was discovered near his heart. Thankfully, Larry chose to have his surgery performed at the Cardiovascular Center at PeaceHealth St. Joseph Medical Center. Larry is fully recovered, and he is now back on the water again.
